The National Trust Ilam Bunkhouse is in the 19th century stableblock of Ilam Hall, now a YHA hostel. It is set in Ilam Park, a beautiful location beside the river Manifold, and an ideal base to explore the spectacular Staffordshire and Derbyshire Peak District. Walkers will enjoy easy access to dramatic Dovedale, and the magnificent Manifold Valley. A wonderful area for cycling, the Manifold Cycle Track and the Tissington Trail both within easy reach, and National Cycle Network route 68 just 2 miles away.Ilam Park itself is a beautiful place to picnic and relax, whilst those looking for thrills can head to Alton Towers, just 10 miles away. The bunkhouse is on two floors, with showers, toilets and drying room on the ground floor, and the main living area on the first floor. There is a large dining/kitchen/lounge area, an upstairs WC and three bedrooms with bunkbeds.
